The purpose of this video is to pay tribute to one of the most beloved and spectacular genres in video game history: the beat 'em up this time focusing on its evolution into 3D. This is a video with both historical and nostalgic value, showcasing how the street-fighting spirit of classic side-scrollers has adapted over the years and made the leap into three dimensions. What are the best 3D beat 'em ups of all time? It’s a very challenging TOP to create, given how the modern brawler blends genres, styles, and generations. I've tried to focus on the games that still preserve the pure essence of the classic genre: street fighting, straight-up action, and good old-fashioned hand-to-hand combat.
